Mademoiselle Revolution by Zoe Sivak
Mademoiselle Revolution by Zoe Sivak is one I’m reviewing for Library Journal. It’s women’s fiction, set at the time of the Haitian Revolution. The historical details are from the perspective of a young woman whose position as the biracial daughter of a white coffee plantation owner and an enslaved Black woman becomes even more precarious when the rebellion begins. Fleeing to France with her half brother, Sylvie de Rosiers escapes one revolution just before France becomes embroiled in its own bloody uprising.
It’s over 400 pages long, so it’s taking me a while to read it! Coming out in early August from Berkley Books.
